Meet Lola! A spirited four-year-old American Pitbull Terrier/American Staffordshire Terrier/Boxer mix currently in Jerome, AZ, whose expressive face and joyful antics turn every day into a laugh-filled adventure. Wrapped in a sleek black coat with charming white accents, Lola is a medium-sized bundle of playfulness, weighing in at 55 pounds of pure personality! She's a plush-toy-loving, Kong-toting gal who delights in a good game of fetch, tug, or hide and seek. Around 2 p.m. every day, like clockwork, she’ll trot over and gently present her Kong, signaling it’s officially playtime, no calendar reminders needed! Lola is the queen of dress-up, strutting around proudly in sweaters and costumes like she's walking a runway. She’s also a puzzle master, especially when peanut butter is involved, just the scent of it sends her into a happy, lip-smacking anticipation! Lola is currently in training and making wonderful progress with other dogs. She has been doing well during supervised play sessions and continues to build positive social skills, showing just how eager she is to learn and succeed. Above all, Lola absolutely adores people and has a special fondness for children! She would thrive in a home where she can be surrounded by loving adults or energetic kids and enjoy plenty of time in a securely fenced yard where she can run, sniff, play, and soak up every moment with her family. This clever girl is house-trained, crate-trained, and leash-trained. She knows an impressive list of commands including sit, stay, lay down, come, paw, high five, dance, go find it, and more, and she actually enjoys practicing them! She’s quiet (rarely barks), easygoing, and settles beautifully once her happy tail is done wagging in excitement. Lola is doing wonderfully with her seasonal and environmental allergies, which are being successfully managed with regular allergy shots and consistent care. Her veterinarian is hopeful her symptoms will continue to ease over time. Her vet team adores her sweet temperament and calm exam behavior! Great news for potential adopters! A trainer from the Arizona Humane Society is offering Lola's new family a free training session. Ready to make someone’s couch her favorite napping spot, Lola brings joy, loyalty, and a whole lot of silliness to every room she enters! The family is relocating and hoping to place Lola before the move. Could your family be the one to share her next chapter?
